Her job?
Find the lost.
Tell their stories.
Protect what remains of Ghostlight.
But when a girl in Myanmar vanishes from the database, Mira follows a trail that leads to a new erasure protocol-one born in the shadows of tech, not politics.
And she uncovers a terrifying whisper...
"Not all erased names are dead. Some are being rebuilt."
Meanwhile, Xavi-now a quiet hacker with a sharp tongue-begins decoding a series of digital signatures tied to their family's past.
And what he finds?
Their mother's name... flagged for deletion.

The Cardinal Bird (1 of Cardinal Series)
Sang has always been a little bit different. She was made fun of for being a math-whiz in school up until she was kidnapped. Growing up in the crime world from a young age, she tried to do what she was told and keep her head down...but...that was easier said than done. Trouble seems to follow her like it's her middle name. Eventually things come to a head that puts her in the Academy's sights, but the struggles only keep piling up as she is shuffled around, wondering when or even if she will ever find somewhere she feels like is home. Disclaimer: All recognizable characters belong to CL Stone. Warnings: This story is 18+ Mature. It will have extreme and graphic violence, murder, swearing...all the fun stuff. I don't separate out mature scenes or warn where they are. If any of those warnings were not to your liking, or if any of these may trigger you--please choose wisely before reading. Note: Also, I do not speak any language fluently other than English. All translations are done by Google Translate, so I apologize. I know that it is rarely accurate, but I still like including them in the story. They make it look more foreign and exotic!

Project NOVA
No one knows her name. No one remembers the program. Fifteen years ago, Project NOVA burned itself out of existence - a covert military experiment designed to create perfect human operatives through psychological conditioning, sensory deprivation, and combat reprogramming. Every file was erased. Every scientist buried. Every subject presumed dead. But one lived. Now, the woman known only as Nova moves through the world like a ghost - a silent weapon-for-hire with no allegiance, no past, and no record. Her efficiency is legendary; her detachment, absolute. To most agencies, she's an asset. To others, a rumor. When a classified threat surfaces - something tied to the same black-ops labs that built her - the elite strike team ONYX is ordered to bring her in as a consultant. The men of ONYX - Commander Asher Vale, sharpshooter Reid Hawthorne, tech specialist Kade Mercer, and demolitions expert Silas Ward - have spent years surviving on trust, instinct, and brotherhood. They follow orders. They don't take risks. And they definitely don't work with outsiders. Until she walks in. Nova becomes the team's greatest weapon and deepest fracture. Her presence ignites suspicion, desire, and a quiet terror that none of them can name - because the more they uncover about her, the clearer it becomes: Project NOVA never ended. It evolved. It's watching. And she isn't just their newest operative. She's the reason they were assembled in the first place.

Splintered [Complete | GB+SB]
Your prospects are limited when you don't exist, but Sang Sorenson has been getting by as a cashier in a grocery store after dropping out of high school. Most days, she's just glad to have some independence, but she's been drifting through her life for two years, too alone to realize she's lonely. Then, late one Sunday night someone comes through her line with more apple pie than one man should be able to eat. The next day, she finds herself helping a young girl with a ...delicate purchase that the girl's older brother and his friend can't handle. And after a close call at home, she seeks help at a diner that recently opened down the street. It's been over a year since the Blackbourne team shattered into three separate teams, and they've all been dealing with the aftermath of a broken family. Though the new Lee and Taylor teams have done well for themselves, things just aren't the same. Then Sean stops by a little mom-and-pop grocery store after a long shift and discovers their bakery section. Kota and Nate take Jess bra shopping, and the cutest girl they've ever seen intervenes when they are less than helpful. And Luke finally meets someone who values pancakes as much as he does...possibly more. And it's barely even Tuesday. ~oOo~ This is a reverse harem fanfic based on C.L. Stone's Ghost Bird series. Be warned, I don't do trigger warnings on individual chapters and this is a Ghost Bird story: there is physical and emotional abuse, implied and overt; there are nine men interested in one woman (#whychoose) and sometimes each other; and the language used is appropriate for mature readers only. Not my circus, not my monkeys. I don't own any of these characters, The Academy, or Charleston, SC. I'm not making any money off of this. Liberties were taken with the legal and medical professions, but I tried to be as accurate as possible.Complete
Amaryana - The journey of Amar
It whispers of exile and destiny, love and jealousy, brotherhood and betrayal, war and peace, of victory over evil. In the distant future, Sāketa, a hovering citadel, the shining capital of the Surya System, stands as humanity's greatest experiment - a living city governed by a superior sun-powered AI known as the Surya Core, designed to maintain perfect equilibrium between progress, order, and moral logic. When the Core detects an anomaly - a disturbance in the moral algorithm of Sāketa - it triggers the Exile Protocol, a failsafe meant to remove any variable that could disrupt the balance. The variable turns out to be Amar, a scion of the city's founding lineage, known for his clarity, compassion, and quiet rebellion against the system's cold logic. Bound by duty, Amar accepts exile into the VanaGrid, a vast wilderness beyond the Core's jurisdiction - where human instinct, forgotten values, and living ecosystems still thrive. He is joined by Siya, his partner, a biologist attuned to the living networks of nature, and Anuj, his fiercely loyal brother who mistrusts the system's verdict. As they descend into the ungoverned zones of VanaGrid- an unknown zone build on nuclear war remains where nature has evolved and thrived with its own defenses. Meanwhile, Across the seas, a corporate empire controlled from the dark web of Lankara, a ghost city on the sea, a visionary technocrat obsessed with transcending mortality by merging human consciousness with powerful rogue consciousness known only as X. He is rewriting the very laws of existence - seeking to free humanity from the Core's control, even if it means destroying everything that remains of civilization. Amar has to make an impossible choice -to destroy Varrak's (Ravan) abomination- and with it, erase Siya's digital essence within?
